Episode 12 - Ring My Belle

It was a bright, and sunny ngày on the Island Of Sodor. Sean the Amtrak Engine was pulling a passenger train near the tìm kiếm & Rescue center. He had to stop at a red signal, and near him was Belle.

Neither engine had ever seen each other before, but Sean thought that Belle was a beautiful engine. "Hello." He said, being a little nervous.

"Hi." Replied Belle. "I never seen bạn before. What do bạn do here?"

"Sir Tophamm Hat has me pull passengers. What do bạn do?" Asked Sean

"I work for the tìm kiếm & Rescue Center. My job is to take out fires."

"Is that why bạn have water cannons attached near your water tanks?" The silver diesel asked.

"Yes," Continued Belle. "I can put out many fires. Sir Tophamm Hat says I'm a really useful engine, but I would like to pull trains someday."

Then, an idea came to Sean. "I'll speak to Sir Tophamm Hat, and see what he says."

This made Belle happy. "Thank you." She puffed. Just then, the signal dropped, and Sean continued on with his passenger train.

Meanwhile at Maithwaite, Sir Tophamm Hat was talking to the station master. "We're expecting a lot of fuel to arrive here for the engines," he informed Sir Tophamm Hat, "They need to get to Knapford."

"Bother." đã đưa ý kiến Sir Tophamm Hat. "All of my engines are busy. It'll be difficult to find an engine to bring the fuel to Knapford."

Just then, Sean arrived with his train. "Sir, may I ask bạn something?"

"What would bạn like to ask me?" Smiled Sir Tophamm Hat.

"Belle says she would like to pull trains someday. Is that alright with you?"

Sir Tophamm thought about it. He did need another engine to pull the fuel cars to Knapford. "Very well. I will speak to her about this at once."

Then, Sean went off to continue with his work.

The tiếp theo day, Sir Tophamm Hat went to the tìm kiếm & Rescue center to talk to Belle. "I heard bạn want to pull trains for me. Well you're in luck. I need bạn to take a train of fuel cars to Knapford."

"I won't let bạn down sir." đã đưa ý kiến Belle happily. She set off to start her work.

When she arrived at the station, she saw ten fuel cars, and a conductor's van. "This must be my train." She said. Belle was excited, and nervous at the same time. She wanted to do a good job pulling the train.

The porter checked to make sure everything was in order, the conductor waved his green flag, and Belle was ready to go. She blew her whistle while blowing smoke from her cylinders as she eased out of the station with her train.

Things were going well, but what Belle didn't realize was that the track in front of her was blocked. Henry was taking empty phẳng, flatbed cars to the smelters yard. Unfortunately, a signalman was being too reckless, and set the points while Henry was on them, causing the green engine to derail.

Belle started to go up Gordon's hill. The train was heavy, but she found it easy getting her train up the hill. One of the freight cars had a plan. "Belle has never pulled a freight train before. Let's push her down the hill, and see how she likes it."

The other freight cars agreed, and as Belle started going downhill, they began to push her. She felt the cars pushing against her, but the big tank engine knew just what to do. She applied her brakes, and they were slowing down. Then she saw Henry, "Oh dear. Henry is derailed in front of me. I must stop."

She had her brakes hard on, and within a few seconds, she stopped just in front of Henry.

The freight cars were vượt qua, cross that their plan didn't work, but they were most annoyed with having to wait for Henry to be put back on the rails. When he was back on track, Henry continued taking his flatbeds to the smelters. Then, Belle set off with her fuel cars.

When she arrived at Knapford, Sir Tophamm Hat was waiting for her. Belle stopped at the station, and Sir Tophamm Hat was pleased. "Well done Belle. bạn got your train here quickly, and safely. I also heard that bạn prevented the freight cars from making bạn crash. I am honored to say that bạn are a really useful engine. Would bạn like to pull trains sometimes?"

"Oh yes please." đã đưa ý kiến Belle. She was really happy. Now, whenever she isn't busy, Belle pulls trains for Sir Tophamm Hat. Often, bạn can see her pulling freight, but is also glad to pull passengers. Sean is happy for her, and is glad to see her pulling trains.

After studying the mini booklet the past night, my mother and I decided to ride the tram bus going back to Vevey. We showed the visitor card to the driver, who then allowed us to take our seats. It was a relaxing ride. When we arrived, we went to a small shopping center to eat lunch. We also explored the department store and supermarket, where we bought some take-out food, Sô cô la bars, and juice. After the mall closed for the day, we went around the neighborhood for a couple of hours before going back to the hotel. My father returned from his work and asked how our ngày was. We told him that we had lots of fun together, to which he responded, "I am very happy to know that bạn are enjoying the place." Soon, it was time to go to bed. Before I slept, my mother told me that we will be visiting Montreux tomorrow.

The tiếp theo day, my mother and I decided to explore the back of our hotel and the neighborhood. My father went to the Nestle headquarters to do some work. In the hotel's back, we saw some parked boats and an alfresco dining area. We also saw some ducks swimming in the lake, as well as some pigeons. We then ate at a pizza, bánh pizza restaurant called La Pizzeta. What's very interesting about this is that there were no customers when we entered the restaurant. However, a few phút after ordering, another one comes in, as if we were like lucky charms! There were also only two waiters, who take the orders,...

We checked out of the hotel at exactly 12 noon. However, since it was still very early to go back to the airport, my mother and I decided to go to Suntec City Mall to do some last một phút shopping. My father waited for us in the hotel lobby, as he had to watch over our luggages. When we got back from the mall, we requested for a taxi to take us back to the airport.

What's very interesting about the plane that we will be riding to Zurich is that it's the aircraft that is thought...

Today is the start of our first trip to Switzerland and our very first trip to the continent of Europe. Everything is all set. We have our passports with the visas ready, our hotel has been booked, and we have arranged for a car service to take us to the airport. I was very excited for this trip. Our flight path includes a stopover in Singapore, since there are no direct flights going to Switzerland from the Philippines. The airline that we rode is Singapore Airlines. When we touched down in Singapore, we had to stay there overnight as the flight going to Zurich is on the tiếp theo day. We stayed in a cheap, low quality hotel called Grand Chancellor, which is located in the Little India district. After checking in, we ate bữa tối, bữa ăn tối outside and did some shopping in a nearby mall. We got ready to sleep right away once we got back to our room, as we had to wake up early for the flight tomorrow...

And so we come to the năm 2008. I have to say that this was another great năm for me and my family.

2007 was the beginning of another transitional period in my life. My parents had thought about getting a condo unit in Manila, since we tend to go there thêm often now. Prior to this, we would usually stay in a hotel overnight when it is already too late to travel back to Laguna hoặc when my father is too tired to drive. We aimed at two convenient locations for our search: Makati City and BGC, hoặc Bonifacio Global City. Also, because of this, we only had one trip during the course of the year. We went back to Indonesia in June. Unfortunately, on the một giây ngày of this trip, I contracted tonsillitis....

We now enter the năm 2004. This năm marked our first trip to Singapore, which is one of my yêu thích countries. It was also during this time when I had just finished my Kindergarten. After my completion, the teacher held a meeting with my parents. She suggested to them that I be homeschooled instead when the tiếp theo school năm comes around. She thought that it would be better that way since I wasn't interested in the group activities, and because I could also work independently with minimum help. At first, they were reluctant about the idea. But after a while, they agreed on it. My mother also...

The first half of 2003 was quite a dark period for me and my family. I started to have difficulty breathing and felt very sick.

Unless bạn find a remedy right away, she might not be able to survive." However, that didn't stop them from trying to cure my illness. After leaving the hospital, we went to a nearby drugstore.

The following year, 2001, my parents became very concerned about me because I had not been talking yet. I would speak in gibberish, but not in full sentences. Knowing that they had to do something about this, they enrolled me in a speech therapy school. To their surprise, after only one class, I was finally speaking properly and almost flawlessly! As a result, they decided to terminate the rest of my enrollment because they knew that I was just going to be bored. They were also quite amazed that I could speak English very fluently, even at a really young age. I also developed an interest in...
